Primordial Chaos Dragon Tower: Harem System

Chapter 539: True Names [Bonus]

”Wait a moment. All five of you have True Names... how is that possible?” Zaila’s Primordial Spirit asked, acting like an entity of its own.

This begs the question: just what is she?

The fact that she looked shocked means she clearly has her own reasoning, which suggests she is more than an entity formed from Zaila’s soul.

If that was the case, then the question should be: What is a Primordial Spirit, and what do they stand for?

They clearly have a mind of their own and can reason independently, even exhibiting all the signs of a person who has their own free will. This means there is a lot to unpack from the concept of Primordial Spirits.

First, however, the question must be answered.

”They have True Names, which were given to them by Kent,” Vexthra answered. She knew something profound was happening here, and as the most intelligent among her sisters, she ought to know.

”There are five of them, and they received their True Names from a person. That is a first.” In front of everyone, the Primordial Spirit waved her hand, and a book appeared—a rather large book.

”Does any of you know what this is?” she asked, making the book hover before their eyes. They all looked at it, but only Vexthra knew the answer.

”It is a manual containing spells from the Ancient Library. How do you have the Serpent Manual?” Vexthra asked after she answered.

The Serpent Manual is one of the oldest books in existence. It contains some of the original spells created by the first ever mind cultivator to appear in the universe, the Serpent Queen.

It was said that she created the infamous AquaLife Manual, a powerful technique that allows those who master it to harness the ability to summon powerful sea beasts with just a swing of their weapons.

She also created a powerful skill that, when used, allows the user to summon beasts hidden within the Dead Sea—said to hold creatures that escaped the destruction of the Primordial Era—to aid in combat.

All these skills and techniques are left in the Serpent manual, kept in the Ancient Library. Nobody, not even the immortals, can brag that they have ever seen its cover, yet here it was, hovering before Zaila’s Primordial Spirit.

”You ask where I got this book from. What if I were to tell you it belongs to me? Would you believe me?” The ladies turned to Vexthra, who seemed to be the only one with the brainpower to comprehend what was happening.

”If you are the owner of this book, then are you telling me you are the reincarnation of the Serpent Queen?” Vexthra asked, but the Primordial Spirit shook her head.

”I don’t know. I am just Zaila’s soul that has awakened in a spirit form. As to whether I am the Serpent Queen, that should be asked of Zaila. However, she also doesn’t know.

Still, I believe you already know the answer, and thanks to these five ladies, I now have the understanding I needed.”

”Don’t tell me you think they are the reincarnations of their True Names,” Vexthra said, raising her eyebrow.

”Then, how do you explain them having dormant Primordial Spirits? You have a True Name, but it’s not the one they have—meaning their True Names are the profound ones.” She flipped the book open to a page.

”According to the records here, True Names aren’t something that can literally transform someone. However, can any of you tell me I’m lying?

When your True Name was awakened, you gained a bloodline, a unique cultivation path, skills and techniques that aren’t from this era, and even your physical appearance changed.

Tell me I’m lying.”

The ladies looked at each other, but they couldn’t deny it. This meant what she said was indeed spot on, and they began to connect the dots.

”If that is the case, then does it mean our True Names are lives we once lived?” Elsa asked, and the Primordial Spirit nodded.

”I’m not one hundred percent sure, but there’s a high chance that’s the case. If so, then you five are monsters that must be feared.”

”You’re exaggerating, lady. Zaila hasn’t awakened her True Name yet, but she basically has the means to solo us without even your help. How are we the monsters here?” Selene asked with a smirk.

”You still don’t get it, do you? The current you is already monstrous. You can fight those in realms above you, and judging by your forms and aura, I’d say you are nearing the first limit in your evolution path.

That’s something that can’t be achieved easily. However, even if that weren’t enough, you have a bloodline to enhance your prowess as you grow.

Then there’s the case where you have to awaken your Primordial Spirit. So tell me—if my theory is correct and I am indeed the reincarnation of the Serpent Queen, known as the Mother of Mind Cultivators, what kind of monster would I become?

More importantly, if you ladies are already under this impression, what would become of you when you awaken your True names?”

The ladies took a deep breath.

”Suddenly, I feel like we are much more impressive,” Neomi joked, but Vexthra shook her head.

”The question on my mind now is: what kind of existence are we tied to? All of this is possible because of him. So, what kind of person is Kent?” she wondered, and her sisters couldn’t help but smile.

”He is our man, destined to dominate the universe one day. For now, we have to ensure he doesn’t carry all the burdens by himself,” Unity said, and her sisters nodded.

”So are you two like the two-body problem? Which of you gets to sleep with Kent?” Selene, of course, changed the topic, asking the obvious.

The ladies glared at her, but they all wanted to know.

”Zaila and I are the same. I am her soul, so whatever she feels, I feel the same. We are not separate beings. I am just her soul that gained intelligence.”

The ladies laughed.

”Does this mean we all can have Primordial Spirits the moment we get our True Names?” Val suddenly asked.

”Yes. I will coordinate with the one who created the Nightmare Chamber and turn it into a training space where you can awaken your Primordial Spirits.”

”Great. At this rate, Kent will have freaks following him around.” The ladies laughed. They left the mind space and went back to the garden to celebrate Zaila’s return.
